CHIROPRACTIC CARE In Austin TX

Here’s how this works:

One of the most common issues we see in the office is an over-active sympathetic nervous system. Spinal subluxations irritate and activate the sympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system acts as the accelerator of the car. It tells all systems to GO. This creates the “fight or flight” reaction in the body. Heart rate and blood pressure go up. People can feel “antsy” and can’t concentrate. They fidget and overreact to normal situations. They have trouble sleeping. They often have lowered adrenal and thyroid function. They are fatigued. They are aging at an accelerated rate. They are not at peace in their body.

Think of your spine as a windmill, its purpose is to generate energy for your brain, which requires a massive amount of energy to function properly and manufacture the hormones and chemicals it needs to keep you healthy. When spinal segments do not move properly, the brain does not get the healthy flow of messages and the energy it needs. This leads to a vicious cycle of sympathetic dominance, and ultimately a breakdown of the organs and tissues of the body.

How chiropractic can help and what to expect:

Think of all the injuries you have had which have healed perfectly. But sometimes, we do not heal as we should. Everyone has their very own doctor within and your body knows how to heal you. If a condition is not resolving itself, nerve interference may be the problem.

We begin with a thorough consultation and assessment of your nervous system and spine. If we find subluxations (misalignments of the vertebrae) causing irritation and interference to the proper flow of messages between the brain and the body, we can help. We usually take X-rays for specific information about how and where to adjust, and when adjustments are appropriate. If subluxations are found, we then begin with specific chiropractic adjustments that allow the body to heal itself.
